The General Union’s strength lies in our unity and collective action. When workers face discrimination or disrespect based on their gender identity or any other personal characteristic, it weakens our ability to fight effectively for better working conditions and fair treatment for all.

Our union exists to challenge power imbalances in the workplace. When members engage in discriminatory behavior against fellow workers, they mirror the divisive tactics that employers use to fragment worker solidarity. Such behavior undermines our collective power and effectiveness as a labor organization.

All workers deserve dignity and respect in their workplaces and within our union. Discriminatory actions or statements against transgender members—or any members—create divisions that employers can exploit. This damages our ability to negotiate effectively and protect all workers’ rights.

The General Union stands firmly for the principle that an injury to one is an injury to all. This is not merely a slogan but a practical necessity for effective trade unionism. When we allow discrimination within our ranks, we sabotage our ability to fight for better working conditions and fair treatment for every member.

We are committed to maintaining an environment where all members can participate fully in union activities without facing discrimination or harassment. This commitment arises not from abstract principles but from our understanding that worker solidarity is essential for advancing the interests of all our members
